Our mission

Full Belli lets anyone fund a meal for a student.

Students should only have to focus on their studies, not how they'll get their next meal.

How it works

Fund. Reserve. Eat.

  1. 01

    Fund

    A person or a company funds a number of meals. They become real meals at restaurants near campus.

  2. 02

    Reserve

    A verified student picks a restaurant, taps reserve, and gets a code that is good for an hour.

  3. 03

    Eat

    The restaurant scans the code, serves the meal, and is paid in full for every one.

Restaurants

The meals are yours. So is the credit.

Every funded meal is cooked by somebody local. You set the dish and the price, you cap how many a day, and you are paid the moment each meal is served.

Students find you through Full Belli and come back on their own time, with their own money. Being the place that feeds the neighbourhood tends to be remembered.

  • You set the meal and the price
  • You cap how many to serve a day
  • Scan the student's code, serve the meal
  • Get paid in full for every meal, the moment you serve it

For restaurant owners

Serve students at your restaurant.

Getting listed takes about five minutes.

Questions

The things people ask.

  • Do I need an account to fund a meal?

    No. You can simply pick a number of meals to fund and you are done. We'll email you the receipt for your records.

  • Should I make an account?

    An account keeps everything you fund in one place, tells you when a meal you funded is served, and carries back a thank you note from the students. A company also gets a profile students can look up, so the name on the meal becomes a name they know, plus reporting and one receipt per cycle. You can make an account after you pay, with the same email.

  • Who can get a meal?

    Any student who verifies a college university email address once a year.

  • What does it cost the student?

    Nothing. The meal is 100% paid for by supporters. They show a code at the counter and pick up their meal, just like any other order.

  • Will anyone know someone else paid for the meal?

    The restaurant scans a code, the same as a prepaid order. Nothing at the counter or on the receipt marks it out as different.

  • Where does my money actually go?

    It becomes meals at selected restaurants near campus, and those restaurants are paid for every plate they serve while a portion of the fund is allocated for Full Belli operations.

  • Can I stop a recurring payment?

    Any time, from your dashboard or the link in your receipt. Nothing is locked in.

  • Can I choose the restaurant?

    Yes. You can pick specific partner restaurants, or choose a city, or let Full Belli allocate it for you.

  • What happens if a meal is never claimed?

    It stays at that restaurant, and the next student who reserves there gets it. It is not returned, it does not move, and it does not expire.

  • Is funding a meal tax-deductible?

    No, and your receipt says the same. We would rather be clear about that here than have you find out at tax time.
